DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN THE WIZARDING WORLD AND ITS CHARACTERS, THAT RIGHT GOES TO J.K. ROWLING!

Some more exploration of the Tower but then it is done, well they'll probably find hidden rooms and passages along the way but no more exploring like they are doing now.

Enjoy!


The next morning, as Harry woke up, he blinked for a few seconds, wondering where he was but then he remembered about the Tower and their plan to train to the best of their abilities. That woke him fully and he sprung out of his bed before rushing to the kitchens and preparing breakfast in the fast way he had learned to do it at the Dursley's. He put a preservation charm on it like Hermione had taught him, then, he took a pot and a spoon and, sprinting up the stairs, started clanging them together while yelling:

"Wake up lazy people! It's time for breakfast, then exploring and then... TRAINING!"

"SHUT UP!" was the almost unanimous reply and only Luna came out of her bedroom, violent orange earmuffs in the forms of carrots protecting her ears from the worst of the racket. Harry blinked at her several times before smiling, shaking his head slightly and continuing to be as loud as possible. Luna apparently decided to join in on the fun because she had taken one of her jars that she used to capture her imaginary animals in and started tapping on it with her wand, which, to his surprise, didn't produce the tinkling sound you would think it would, but a loud gong sound.

"GONG."

They quieted down immediately due to surprising loudness of the sound and Luna smiled happily.

"Mister T has told us another message, you should come and look." she said in her dreamy voice.

Everyone raced out of there rooms.

"Where?"

"On the door leading downstairs." answered the blonde girl.

They turned to look and sure enough, a new message was there.

You are entirely to lazy. Out of seven people, only one woke up at dawn and did any form of exercise and only one other person woke up not that long after and made food. It's disgraceful. If you want to get anything done, starting tomorrow, you will all wake up with the sun, you will go to the Gardens and take one fruit, eat it and start running around it. Go fast enough or you will be prey to the plants. After half an hour, you will go to the swimming pool situated on floor up and swim for fifteen minutes. A week later I want you to be able to add half that time, and another week later I want you to be able to run for an hour non stop and swim half an hour non stop. Afterwards, the longer you do, the better, but don't do less or you will need to be punished. Only then you can make breakfast, at least partly with magic if not all, and in groups of two or three in rotation each meal. T.

 

They exchanged looks of both excitement to start training and dread over what it consisted of.

"Does T stand for Tower or Thanatos?" blurted out Harry, having wondered about that since the first message.

He received a slap behind the head from Hermione, causing the Twins to snicker.

"Obviously it's Thanatos, he build it after all. He probably imbued his magic and maybe his very soul in it." snapped the young girl, obviously not all that happy with the physical side of things, being the bookish sort and not having a good physical condition meaning she would suffer.

"Or it could be the Tower because, just like Hogwarts, it is an old building imbued with magic meaning it could have gained sentience." proposed Charlie, giving her a wink and a playful shove in the shoulder, making her harrumph and cross her arms in mock anger.
